%DRAWCIRCLE3D Draw a 3D circle
%
%   Possible calls for the function:
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC R THETA PHI])
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC R], [THETA PHI])
%
%   where XC, YC, ZY are coordinates of circle center, R is the circle
%   radius, PHI and THETA are 3D angles in degrees of the normal to the
%   plane containing the circle:
%   * THETA between 0 and 180 degrees, corresponding to the colatitude
%       (angle with Oz axis).
%   * PHI between 0 and 360 degrees corresponding to the longitude (angle
%       with Ox axis)
%   
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC R THETA PHI PSI])
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC R], [THETA PHI PSI])
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC R], THETA, PHI)
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC], R, THETA, PHI)
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC R], THETA, PHI, PSI)
%   drawCircle3d([XC YC ZC], R, THETA, PHI, PSI)
%   drawCircle3d(XC, YC, ZC, R, THETA, PHI)
%   drawCircle3d(XC, YC, ZC, R, THETA, PHI, PSI)
%   Are other possible syntaxes for this function.
